Sarah: You're re-motivated and re-starting for reasons so similar to mine. My scale said 297 and this little voice said, "Remember all those years ago when you thought you may be packing a bit of extra weight, sure, but you'd never hit 200 lbs . . . Look how you met and surpassed that! Don't make that mistake with 300!"

You are definitely not alone--and you'll be past this perceived obstacle sooner than you know.
